Book Description
Excerpt from Fontenoy: And Great Britain's Share in the War of the Austrian Succession, 1741-48 IN presenting this work to the public, I need not lay stress on the tactical or strategic problems which it unfolds. They will be best appreciated by military students, whose criticism may, per haps, be disarmed by the frank admissions in the Preface. The political issues raised are of wider importance. They are not stated explicitly in the text, - for history is one thing and speculation quite another, - but he who runs may read the morals drawn in these pages. TO exhume a dead and buried past is sheer waste of time if it be not forced to yield lessons of value to the present generation.

The Rise of the Nation-State in Europe
Author: Jack L. SchwartzwaldPublisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476665478
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 276
Book Description
The 1648 Treaty of Westphalia marked the emergence of the nation-state as the dominant political entity in Europe. This book traces the development of the nation-state from its infancy as a virtual dynastic possession, through its incarnation as the embodiment of the sovereign popular will. Three sections chronicle the critical epochs of this transformation, beginning with the belief in the "divine right" of monarchical rule and ending with the concept that the people, not their leaders, are the heart of a nation--an enduring political ideal that remains the basis of the modern nation-state.
